Old Player wants an update

Willy,

If you are going to play with a pick see this:

If you are going to play finger style see this:

I started playing bass at about age 55 - old is only relative. At 102 my mom thought everyone was young.

Hope the above helps and hope what ever carpel tunnel mitigation you need works.
